Re: Widget Reunion old and new(L-1011 and 2 757's)
the gemini 757's are very nice, however I would have preferred that the front and rear gear be diecast solid metal...the lose gear on front nose has a terrible slant backward to it and it just seems less durable and loose to me, and the fan blades could be better, with a more uniform pattern. I have an eastern 757 and the blades look like they went through a bird strike. Gemini detail is good but why not go the extra mile on these two items. Gemini's dc-9-10 and l-1011-500 to me are much better, they feel solid and heavy...good job on those.
